There's your first problem. Why use such an old release? If you're
reporting a bug, you should test with the latest version.

Windows 7 **WHAT**?

"Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1 x64" ?

Also, is the machine joined to a corporate domain?

Is there a virus scanner or other "security" software installed?

If you do start->run (or hold the windows key and press the R key) then
enter "services.msc", does the PostgreSQL service show up as started there?

If you examine the PostgreSQL error logs in the pg_log directory under
the PostgreSQL data directory (by default, inside the PostgreSQL program
install directory in program files) are there any messages there? If
there are, paste them.

Examine the windows Event Viewer (you can find it in the Start Menu by
searching for Event Viewer) do you see anything related to the
PostgreSQL service? Search for "postgres".

In the process list in Proces Explorer or Task Manager, does the
"postgres.exe" process appear? There should be several of them.
